I was postpartum by about 6 months & was worried about the fit. This dress worked perfectly.

The material is super nice and a bit forgiving. Very classy. The best I felt dressed up postpartum.

Great Dress, maybe a bit big.

I loved this dress that I rented for a formal wedding. Good fabric, thick, but still stretchy. Runs short, and big in my opinion. Wore a 4L (definitely order the L) could have worn the 2 L but they were all out! But I still loved it! Held up to me chasing around my one year old all evening!

Beautiful gown

In my experience with this dress, order early enough to exchange if necessary. It was extremely wrinkled but I had to wear this! Had to have it pressed! Elegant yet sexy! Falls nicely. Keep in mind it was just short of being too big on the side and I'm a 36 bust but a size smaller would have been too small in bodice. Perfect length for me with 3 1/2 inch heels. Received lots of compliments and ended up forwarding lots of RTR referrals and this actual dress. I might actually try to find it to buy it! Love!

Classy and elegant

This dress was great. I loved it and received so many compliments. It was a little big on me and I probably could've used a smaller size because it was heavier and I kept having to twist the dress slightly so that it'd wear properly.

Elegant perfection!

I loved this dress and received many compliments throughout the evening. I was worried it would be too long because I am rather short but it was perfect with a pair of heels. Not sure the height of the heels but probably about 2 inches. The fabric is a bit revealing so I wore the dress with a smoothing shaper and it fit and looked great. This dress was definitely a hit!

Elegant with comfort

Very flattering cut and forgiving in the waist area. Wore to a black tie wedding. Not necessarily a stand out dress but that was good because we didnt know many people there. However, because it is comfortable and hits you in all the right places, you make a statement by wearing with ease. Highly recommend if you are picking a first dress that you are nervous about, this is a great back up. I wore same style in navy last year and knew it was a great go to.

Great dress - wrong size

I ended up wearing the size 12R because Rent the Runway was unable to ship the 10R because it was damaged. While they sent a 10P and another dress in similar style, both were too small and opted for the size 12 which fit ok, but was slightly too big in the bust. Received tons of compliments and it was very comfortable! Just wish I could've tried the 10R as I'm sure I would've ended up wearing that one.

Black tie wedding- I was the matron of honor. This dress is gorgeous- so classy!

I wore the 10L vs. the 8L. I'm normally size 6-8 and 5'8" but just had a baby. The 8L length was way shorter than the 10L and I had trouble with the 8L zipper. It got stuck a couple times (maybe because it was so tight?) I was able to wear 2 inch heels with the 10L.

You want to feel fabulous? Wear this dress!

I loved this dress. I wear size 16/18 jeans so I chose a size 18 dress. I wish I would have gone with a size 16 because the top was a little big. But not so big that it was noticeable. It was very comfy and I felt so skinny! The dress has a lining that makes all your imperfections pretty much disappear (even tho I still wore my spanxx). I was so pleased with RTR, I will order again and again!

Fits like a glove and felt like I was having a red carpet moment.

I ordered this in the 20 and 22 because I normally wear a 22. I never thought I could wear what looks like a straight dress. The pictures do not do it dress justice. It is such a flattering and forgiving fit. It hugs you in all the right places while camouflaging all the problem areas. It is also comfortable and easy. Just put it on and go. No adjusting or fussing or fidgeting with it at all. It has great flow and movement. Simple and elegant with slight pizzazz. I received compliments all night long. Was sorry to ship it back.

My first rental was a total bust so I ordered this one last minute!

This dress runs true to size. I am typically a 2 or 4 but the 2 fit perfectly for a black tie wedding. The only con was that it was a little snug under the arms but not enough difference to go up a size. The dress runs short, even at 5'1 I was able to wear a simple 2" heel and it wasn't dragging to the floor.

Perfect for a 5-months preggo woman! The black was slimming and there was plenty of bump room.

The dress I wanted wasn't available, so I ordered this one at the suggestion of an associate. It was perfect! Mamas, if you need to look great and you're 5 months pregnant, this is the way to go. I usually wear a size 2 or 4, so I ordered a 6 and an 8 and ultimately went with the 8. I loved it!

Perfect for a black tie affair

After reading all the wonderful reviews of this dress I was so excited when it arrived. The long length fit perfect, I definitely recommend long for anyone 5'6" and taller. My only complaint about this dress was the fit on the side with the zipper. It did not fit flush to my body, but instead it was all bumpy. I know the dress fit because the next size up was way too big. Maybe this is just a dress that is better fit if it's tailored to you? I'm not sure but it bothered me and I stood in pictures so you could not see it. I did not read this complaint in other reviews so maybe I just got a bad dress. It was also horribly wrinkled and I had to steam it. I felt very beautiful overall, just wish it fit better. #blacktie

Overnighted 2cnd dress that was more amazing than my first pick

I'm so glad my first pick didn't fit. This dress is amazing. I wore the 18 but def could've done the 16, which is my true size. I'm 5'1, 220lbs and the length was perfect with 3" heels. The dress is a very flattering heavier material. This dress made a curvier girl look and feel beautiful all night. Thank you RTR!

Classy & Comfy

This is one of 3 dresses I rented to choose from to wear to a formal wedding, and my first RtR experience. I went ahead and joined their unlimited program so I had extra time choosing and keeping the right dress. I usually wear a SS 0 or 2 and the 2R fit perfectly. I don't usually wear heels, so I thought the length was fine for my 2" pumps, but if they were any higher I would have needed the long. I didn't end up keeping this dress for the wedding, mostly because my friends and hubby liked one that was a little sexier, but I really loved this dress and thought it was the easiest to wear and definitely the most comfortable of the three.

This dress was perfect for a black tie wedding in Chicago. I'm from Oregon and rented the 4 and the 2. The 4 was slightly big and long, the 2 fit well but was too short. Luckily there was a RTR store in Chicago right next to our hotel so I brought in my dresses and they had me try the 4 Petite which fit PERFECTLY! Awesome customer service. I got soooo many compliments the whole night!

Dress was pretty but beware of one shoulder

Dress was very pretty and fabric was comfortable. The only downside was that the arm hole for the one shoulder was very tight and by the end of the night it was digging into my skin. I don't have unusually large arms but I couldn't wait to get it off by the time the wedding was over.

A classic, elegant and crazy-comfortable dress made my evening a spectacular success!

This was actually a replacement dress for a Marchesa that was unable to ship. I attended a 1920's-themed black tie gala for our city's orchestra, and needed something that would look good in motion and still be comfortable enough to sit through a dinner and lengthy symphony performance. This dress knocked it out of the park - elegant and conservative enough for an older crowd, but the dramatic ruffle detail added interest. I could probably have sized down - while the dress stayed up and in place with the addition of a small amount of fashion tape, it was a bit roomy throughout the body and the zipper accordingly crinkled a bit - I think it may have been stretched out over time. Also might have benefited from the long - my dress grazed the floor in back and skimmed the top of my toes in the front. Thank goodness the shoes were cute :)

Simple and classic dress

I wore this dress for a fall gala and received several compliments. Ironically, the host was wearing the same dress from here but in red so we looked liked twins and rocked the dresses! It's a very classic dress and fit true to size. I wore some statement earrings with it and it didn't need any more accessories than that. I'm 5'3" and the regular length was perfect with 4 inch heels; the petite would've been too short.

This was my back-up dress and I liked it more than my first choice. I would recommend a strapless bra and spanx for a smooth look. I'm 5'7" and the 4L was almost too short with 4 inch heels. If you're not sure go with a longer length

Black tie military ball, celebrating son's graduation from the US Naval Academy. Unforgettable.

You can't go wrong with this gown. I am very curvy and it wasn't too tight nor gappy.
I'm 5'2 and wear 38ddd. Fit perfectly.
The fabric is beautiful and breathed well in an over crowded hot space.
Almost touched the floor, was perfect length for me.
I felt wonderful in it and would rent it again in a snap.
